    • Process Serving in Lehigh County

    • Process Servers Pennsylvania provides dedicated process serving across Lehigh County.

      Lehigh County is the anchor of the Lehigh Valley metropolitan area and home to Allentown — Pennsylvania’s third-largest city. The county seat is Allentown, where the Lehigh County Courthouse at 455 W Hamilton St houses the Court of Common Pleas and the Lehigh County Sheriff’s Office. Our servers cover all of Lehigh County’s diverse communities — from downtown Allentown and Bethlehem’s Southside to Whitehall Township, Emmaus, Macungie, and Slatington. The Lehigh Valley’s rapid economic growth has brought major distribution and logistics operations — Amazon, Chewy, and B. Braun Medical — to the county’s industrial parks, making corporate and registered agent service increasingly common. Lehigh County’s 31st Judicial District shares a common pleas bench with Northampton County, and our servers frequently run cross-county assignments covering both Allentown and Easton courthouses in the same day. We are experienced with the specific local rules of the 31st District, the Lehigh County prothonotary’s e-filing requirements, and the sheriff’s writ procedures. Our servers also handle service at Lehigh Valley Hospital and St. Luke’s University Health Network locations for medical records subpoena compliance. Spanish-speaking servers are available for service in Allentown’s significant Hispanic community. Notarized affidavits within 24 hours of every attempt.
